@SirkaithethirdWould a single rapier be alright then? No pistol or anything else? Or should it be the clothes on their back?

While women didn't hold commissions or rank there were women aboard Royal Naval Vessels

Women and the British Navy

A large number of women started following their sailor-husbands to sea, and in the British navy during the eighteenth century, a few women even joined their husbands on battleships. The British Admiralty officially did not allow women on board, but records show that captains often let the wives of officers join the ship and share their husbands' cabins or hammocks and food rations.

Why would a woman leave home to travel on a ship of war? Many had no home or money while their husbands were at sea. The ship provided a home and a chance to share life, however harsh, with their husbands. The wives worked on the ship, mending or cleaning clothes or serving as captains' maids. In battle, they attended the wounded or carried gunpowder; a few were wounded themselves.

A rapier is probably very expensive, a simple Dirk is more of the seaman's style

It would be rare a boy that age, even a Midshipman /Cabin boy be allowed on a Naval vessel and only then if they were related to the Captain or higher rank aboard. Powder monkey's were sometimes as young as 10 but taken only if they had the strength and stamina to do the task.




Oh and if I may Ask Captain; "Is it permissible that I know a bit of our Orders"

Stand taller fingers almost on my buttons; "I ask as knowing our sailing orders allows me to prepare for regional malady's"

We probably will be assigned to the Channel fleet, or a squadron in the north Atlantic
